AfriGeneas Writers Forum

Hi. A few books based on African Americans come to mind: Mama Flora's Family, Roots. Now, when it comes to the time for me to sit down and write a book dealing with some experience and so forth, suddenly I get that awful feeling as though I am writing some of the same stuff that many of the other authors are writing. Suddenly, it sounds like plagiarism. Do you ever feel that way when you write a story?
